Before, during, and after the wicked storm.

Hot summer's evening - Unwelcomed wind gusts - Frenzy of swirling leaves - Wildlife take cover - Thunder rumbles - Lightning's strike - Splattered rain Steaming pavements - Curbside rivers overflow - Sunken fields puddle - The calm after - Sunshine winks - Remnants of Gusts breeze - Flower heads lift - Children play - Animals drink - Birds sing - Nightfall approaches - Full moon glows - Stars twinkle - The owl hoots

I like your line, the sunshine winks and this makes me think of the owls that hoot here :). I once heard Many at the same time, in chorus back and forth, it was amazing :) Great poem !
